Ladies and G-entlemen, — I would respectfully inform you that Laving been urgently requested by a considerable number of your body to become a candidate for the office of Mayor of the new Borough of Hawera, I take this opportunity of announcing to you that I am a candidate for the office of Mayor at the forthcoming election.

I would be in favor of setting aside all rents derived from reserves, and revenue derived from hotel licenses, for the payment of interest, so forming a sinking fund to pay off our debt, leaving brewers' licenses, dog tax, auctioneers' and hawkers' licenses, with rates and revenue from other sources for. the maintenance of streets, footpaths, and general expenditure, taking great care that the same shall be spent to the best advantage for the benefit of the ratepayers generally.

Yours faithfully, F. McGUIRE. TO THE ELECTOES OF TffE BOROUGH OF HAWERA. Gentlemen, — I beg hereby to intimate my intention of coming forward as a candidate for the honor of Mayor of 1 your Borough. I I may state that as I have no particular street to form, or personal ends to gratify, my services will be placed untramelled at the services of the electors. To those who have known my con- \ duct in public bodies for the last ten yeaTß ox so, it is needless for me to say anything, while to those whose acquaintance I have not had the pleasure of making I can only say that in the future, as in the past, I will do all in my j>ower to forward the interests of our Borough. Borough chambers, improving the town by forming and metalling all necessary streets and drainage, are among the principal works that will receive my attention. Should the funds at the disposal of the councillors be inadequate to carry out those works, I would be in favor of borrowing, eiLOuld the ratepayers deem 5t ] liecessavy. T3ie above, gentlemen, are my sentiments, and should you think me worthy of the honor of Mayor^ I will do all I can to : carry them out. Meanwhile, I have the honor to remain, <fee, JOHN WINKS. 77 AU R I TIMBER. All classes of Kauri Timber obtainable, delivered at Hawera on the shortest notice. W. MURRAY THOMSON.
